Pearl Jam Live! Poll #2: Seen a show where Yellow Ledbetter was played, but not as the show closer?

The second in a series of random questions about your live Pearl Jam experiences. New polls whenever I feel like it.

For this question, to answer Yes, Yellow Ledbetter must have been played at a show you attended, but NOT as the show closer. These days when Yellow Ledbetter is played, it is almost guaranteed to be the last song of the night. But it used to not always happen that way. Have you been to a show where Yellow Ledbetter was played, but NOT as the show closer?

    I'm assuming the star spangled banner doesn't count as a closer....?
    Oh please let it rain today.

    yeah, tags wouldn't count, and i would say ssb is a tag. i guess there'd be a liitle gray area for a full-on little wing, but for these purposes lets call full little wings tags, too.

    Vancouver 1998 and Gorge 05. The band played Ledbetter then closed out with Baba O'Riley for both shows. Vancouver was pretty epic. You could tell the band thought they were done and Ed's like "One More"!!

    Seattle 2002 - They played don't believe in Christmas after Ledbetter.

    I can't remember if there's any more.

    Yes, Astoria 2006 for me too. Getting Alive as Encore 3 was a nice surprise :)

    I've had YL at 7 of my 16 shows and 6 of them have been as the closing song, although we did get an extended Little Wing at Newcastle in 2006 (full song, not just Mike playing) before the YL outro

    21 Ledbetters, 21 closing Ledbetters. I'd be perfectly happy if it closed every show I see.

    ...

    I also really fucking want Pearl Jam to open a show with "Yellow Ledbetter."
